The goal of the project was to create an easily accessible and convenient service center for students to interface with various University Services, as well as touchdown space for University Services staff. The Point is in one of the lower levels of a highrise building on campus, which presented several design challenges. We used expanses of luminous panels and glass to help create a feeling of spaciousness and openness in an area of relatively low ceiling heights. Making The Point highly visible was another challenge. We responded to this by designing an orange acoustical felt accent wall with a corner-wrapping graphic sign that is visible from the entry doors.

This 6,200 SF office suite was renovated for the Office of the Dean for Research. The floor plan flips workstations and shared spaces to the windows and allows daylight to filter through to the interior offices. The entry features an illuminated ceiling cove and rift sawn white oak wall panels. Infrastructure was carefully organized and felt clad pendant lights were utilized to increase acoustic comfort in the open work areas.

Cavalry Bible Fellowship Church realized that their current facility was not ideally suited to their goals of outreach to the Coopersburg community and growing their congregation. Our task was to see the church with new eyes - We centered the renovations and additions on improving the experience of a first time visitor, making the facility accessible to people who don’t feel comfortable in a traditional church environment, and improving teaching spaces to advance the Church’s educational ministry.

The Learning Space Initiative was a 5-year program with a principal objective of integrating new technology into teaching spaces within an expansive, historic campus. Sympathetically integrating new systems into buildings that are often 100-150 years old requires extensive planning and interface with multiple stakeholders including academic departments, the Registrar, the Provost's office, and other internal university departments. This technology integration necessitates the mobilization of designers, construction managers, contractors, vendors, etc. and this project leveraged this team of professionals to perform targeted renovations in these teaching spaces to renovate and enlarge spaces, address deficiencies, refresh finishes, improve energy efficiency, update building systems, and replace furniture.
